“Nothing is more creative... nor destructive... than a brilliant mind with a purpose.”
― Dan Brown, Inferno
As someone who tours, I often adjust my rates depending on my costs and the place visited, so I am comparible in rate. However there have been times when I have been booked before making my adjustments and I have not mentioned that I had intended to raise the rate. On these occassions I have accepted the original rate, as it was my responsibility to make the client aware of any pending rate changes and not his responsibility to be a mind reader.
It's always best to play fair where possible.

Its a hard one but i think if the booking was made and agreed at a certain price that should stand IMO.

The lady in question has contacted me and we had an amicable conversation about the matter. I explained my side and that it was not the cost per se but the fact that the price had changed unexpectedly and she explained hers. She said that it had been an error on her part and when she had sent the pm stating that the new price stood she immediately felt she had been hasty. She offered me a new appointment at the original price. I accepted her kind offer but had already made a date with another lady and would be unable to take her up on it on this occasion. I am away the rest of the week so I will have to wait until our paths cross again in the future. I am pleased that we respected each others position so that the matter could be resolved to our mutual satisfaction. I look forward to seeing her in the future. Her open minded nature has impressed me greatly.
